    Was Muhammad A Prophet? Some Questions and Concerns

    Howdy! Recently I've been reading a lot about Jesus Christ and Muhammad. This is for a variety of reasons but the origins of both the early church and the early ummah are very interesting to me. I have my doubts about the exact nature of Jesus Christ but he is a very interesting figure and I...

    His dad died and 3 weeks later he nearly died.

    This regular Youtube presenter has what I consider an enviable but troubled life. He's a Christian, has a wife and kids, has a good home; but he's really been through the wringer in some ways. He grew up in a cult but was ejected when he made some decisions. He has since remained a believer...

    Are Messianic Jews Christians?

    In my opinion, according to the Bible, they are not Christians. They still live in the old covenant, they circumcise themselves, they celebrate the Sabbath and they also keep other laws of Moses. They still live like a servant of God although the new covenant has made Christians children of God...

    Why are they ignoring the persecution of Christians?

    It is really a phenomenon, when Jews are in danger, then there is great noise in Europe and in the USA, but the persecution of Christians is ignored. Even the situation of Muslims in China has more attention; I wonder if Europe and the USA are still really Christian. Currently, Christians are...

    Persecution of Christians

    14 of the top 16 countries where Christians are most persecuted are muslim countries; could words like these be to blame? Quran Surah 5, Verse 72 Those who say "Jesus is God" are disbelievers; they will not enter paradise, but hell. These evil people will have no helper! Quran Surah 9, Verse 5...

    Questions to Christians - Practical Application of Turning the Other Cheek

    Questions to Christians: The author of Luke 6:29-30 quotes Jesus as saying: "If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it...

    Question to Christians - Phyisical Israel and Spiritual Israel

    Questions to Christians: My understanding is that many Christian sects hold that a "spiritual Israel" has replaced the Israel that received the Torah at Mount Sinai. My understanding is that when Christians state "spiritual Israel" they are referencing themselves, Christianity or their...

    Should God show himself?

    With the 1,000s of different versions of religions and the different versions of those religions, an appearance by God is long overdue. There also billions on Earth who would welcome the knowledge of its existence just to confirm which version of its being, religion, messenger, prophets are...

    Question to Christians - 144,000 Start and Finish

    Questions to Christians: According to Christianity, what are the requirements for someone to be included in the 144,000 number? According to Christianity, when did the 144,000 count start and when does it end? Also, is this number based on the actual Jewish tribes or are non-Christian Jews...

    Excuses for Persecution?

    Lately I came across some what I consider excuses for the persecution of Christians. This may apply to the persecution of any other religion (or non-religion), too: One poster said he'd be in favour of an anti-proselytising law with strong enforcement. Moreover, another poster said that there...

    What is Christianity like in India ?

    If Christians make up 1% of India's population that means there is 13 million Christians in India which is a pretty sizeable amount. Are these practising Christians? If they are then do you think there are more practising Christians than UK, France or Germany? Are there any famous Indian...

    Enemy's enemies are your friends - jews and Christians, unlikely friendship

    (By "friends" I here mean any kind of ally in religious terms.) Taking into account history, should Jews and Christians be friends? Or Jews and muslims? Or Muslims and Christians? Which one would make a most likely friendship? Muslims got along well with Jews for centuries. Christians have...

    A few questions for Christians

    I am trying to understand why people are Christians and what it means to them to be a Christian. So, I have three questions. What caused you to become a Christian? What does being a Christian mean to you? How do you think Jesus wants you to live?

    What is the Relationship between Christians and Israel?

    i see a lot on the news about Christians being concerned about what goes on in Israel, like when the U.S. Embassy was moved to Jerusalem. I know that Jesus was Jewish but is there any other reason Christians are very interested in Israel?

    Do different religions have a different idea of heaven/hell? How is this possible?

    For example, there is only ONE New York city, and everyone regardless of their religion knows this and they would probably know what you were talking about if you said you were going to New York city. Therefore, assuming that heaven is supposed to be a place that actually exists, it stands to...
